Ahoy Thomas.... just got Seria back in the water and looking at other sailors videos. Hopefully all is well with you. Looking forward to seeing more videos when you arrive in your next port. I'm assuming you are doing a big crossing in Pacific water.
Measure TWICE- cutting/sawing/drilling ONCE seems to be valid also for electrical stuff 🤔 Thnx for explicit showing! Without mistakes there is no learning 🤷🏽♂️
😅 No only did you fail to test the fan but you also cut the cables so close to the fan body that it must have made it virtually impossible to re-solder the wires back on. Lessons learned.
👌Well young fella....has me stuffed how you fall head first into a situation, and later, with some perseverance manage to come up with a huge beaming smile and explain what was or wasn't..Now that is all able now to be shared with other cruisers...I salute you 👍 P.S. A hint please as how to attract beautiful ladies, She is a champion and blends nicely as crew. Cheers.
Hey Thomas ….I just found your channel I am subscribing. We where in shelter bay on C dock across from you guys a few weeks ago,Gary and Ena on Divergent . We transit the canal on the 21st looks like Isla Tobago is a stop we should make. Fair winds
Whoops! When you know what you're doing but you don't do it all the time it's easy to get a step ahead of yourself. Glad the ice maker repair worked out in the end. Cheers!
Thomas glad to see you found a nice spot to park that allows you to both relax and get some repairs done as well. Ice makers as a general rule are high maintenance appliances I have found, glad you were able to get yours back up and working. Were you able to get your new auto pilot parts installed and working as you had hoped? Cheers Thomas & Gee🍻
Nice fix, and you always learn not from your successes but from your failures. Happy sailing and look forward to seeing the Pacific with you guys. Thanks for letting us tag along. John
LOVE your engineering thoughts and graphic explanations on repositioning the rudder hydraulics! Here also fixing stuff in less tropical more archipelagic (isthataword?) settings fixing cayaks, saildinghy, making cinnamon buns and reading PåskeKrim 😉☕️ thanks for fixingstuff-inspiration and as always good vibes, Gee is such a treasure, nice new(ish) intro btw! Sorryvif I’m boring y’all with all the superlatives, keep up the good work/play! Cheers! 💪😀🤙☕️
I can clearly see that my thirty year old stating still is valid when it comes to relationships containing some sort of mutual attraction: 1+1=11 What an amazing resource for almost anything on a sailboat⛵️ Keep it up you two! 👍🏽
If this sailing stuff don't work out, you can always open an appliance repair shop. I have a feeling you'd do well.. To bad about the robberys down there, seems to be the way of the world right now. Be free & be safe..
Better to also see a video of the actual autopilot setup so that one can assess the geometry and components. Some of your followers are professional engineers and can give you some feedback.
No post in a long time! Have they been a victim of piracy! I sent a message on Patreon, no reply. I'm Concerned. AIS position data on Vesselfinder use to be within minutes for Be Free. Now the last AIS signal was April 27th. Does anyone have any knowledge of Thomas and Gee? Are they alright?😢
Forgive the nudge. Are you ok? I know you have a life to live (and not just to entertain us!) but this is an uncharacteristically long gap in transmission so I thought I'd check in! I hope that the reason for radio silence is that you're living your best life! :)
Thomas, you are an excellent representative of our sailing community! Cheers!!
Thanks again Thomas!!
Thank you so much for watching 🙏🏻
Takk for turen, igjen! Mange fine filma du har👍🏻 Du e flink å lage filma med masse viktig og nyttig info👍🏻👏🏻

Yes, cruising is fixing things in exotic or dangerous or remote or freezing or hot as a furnace locations..... André in Sydney

Good fix on the ice maker, Thomas!👍👍

Can ya somehow find room to reinstall yer Washing Machine😜 Continue to Stay Safe and Enjoy😎
Hope your tweek for the steering works well🤞🏽
Gee is good in camera handling as well! 💪🏽
Glad you enjoyed Taboga. I hope you didn't completely avoid the Las Perlas. Isla Mogo-Mogo is a gem. (Put a warning on your wire cutter!;)
So true! My wire cutter bites.
Great episode! Stay safe Be Free crew!👍👍
Thomas I was curious, If someone steal your dinghy, How would you get back to the boat?
Best have the dirtiest ugly dinghy with a fluorescent free motor and lots of reflective tape. It will still be there.
It was a relief to learn that their dog was found and returned days after the boarding and robbery. Be safe. Be Free. Happy Easter 🐇
Love your video's Thomas. Please keep them coming. Greetings from that Old Jarhead in WNC
Great video. Stay safe down there and enjoy all that ice !😊
Herlig!
Nice too see bought of you enjoying! Stay safe and healthy. Life is good 😎

Watch out for those thin beer cans containers
Thomas, are you ok? We haven’t seen you in a couple weeks?
Makes me worried too, has anyone heard anything about them or do we need to start a S&R mission?

What an amazing resource for almost anything on a sailboat⛵️
Keep it up you two! 👍🏽
@@MiQBohlin Totally, without the 25 minute “reality” drama, giving birth, self agrandising narration etc etc.!!
Thomas, have you considered adding wheels to your dinghy for situations like this?
to your channel waves :)
great video
Supert at du lykkes med feilsøking og reparasjonsjobbene dine(hilsen elektriker fra Trondheim). And as always cheers/skål😎🍻

Little sailor tip in sketchy area don’t fly a flag it makes you a target.
Have you seen his dingy
Thank you! Looking forward to the quadrant update.
Ha Robby is the second hardest working crew member only second to Mr Auto pilot..
Not sure that ice water was safe to drink 😂
"Fixing things in exotic locations" lol yes
Sailing is definitely fixing things in exotic locations.😂
No wonder government of Pnima is so upset!
Venter på en ny video!
Title song is awful, but love the channel.
Whaddya mean? Title song is great!
A woman that doesn't speak?! Some good old boys would call you very lucky!!😂

Tell G that Coca Cola is not really good for her.
Neither is Cocain, but it sure is fun when you’re doing it😂😂😂
Are you ok?! No news for so long!‼
Thomas
When are you going to make some new videos?
We haven’t had one for ages!!😲🙏🤞👍🥰🏴
Hi Thomas
No video’s posted lately!
Hope everything is ok?🙏🤞🏴
Thomas where are you⁉️

--QUESTION -- For circumnavigation, would you take the new Hallberg Rassy 57 or the new Swan 58?
